Depending on when you get there, you can get one of the big booths with very big couches. If they aren't availablle, there's still lots of other couches and quiet corners.

Trump Tower
You'll want to book a parking spot in their garage on SpotHero before you go.
Bar is closed in the morning, but restaurant on 16 will serve you drinks on the couches outside.

The Signature Room at the 95th
Pros:Great view of the city. As a party of two you'll probably be sitting directly by the window.
Cons: They don't accept reservations, so depending on the time (especially around sunset) there may be a line to enter. They card  from 7PM and on.

So change it to any other venue that you'd like. Argument still stands. It's their service and they can charge what they like. By not honoring it, you are potentially stealing.
Agreed to the last part, but I don't think you'd find a comparable price structure anywhere

guided tours...When I was in Rome, I saw several tour guides yell at people for tagging along even though they weren't disrupting.

-1 a tour with fifteen people is totally different than a tour with 30

 one or two tag alongs don't change the dynamic of the tour if they are quiet. But trying to find an exact parallel situation is a distraction from the original discussion. If it is in their terms, it might be stealing.

Where?

I recommend Kold Kuts. But you really need to try a bunch and figure out which works for you.

There are some seats. I don't like the cholent anywhere I've tried that has seats, except for Gottleibs, and the problem with that is your date may be the only female in the store...

  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Why not? Depends on the impression you're trying to give I suppose.

Well, I went there once, and peeked through the window to see if there were any women. I saw one, so we went in. But then we saw it was a kid. So we took our cholent (and kishke and kugel) and ate in the car.

Yes, on Lee

I'd have done it, if the right opportunity presented.

You can also just purchase refundable tix and use any other airline to which you have access.
Of course, it means going through security. But at least then you know if she carries weapons on dates.
